It's over for another year, but what a blast it turned out to be! Everyone seemed to have fun, we raised lots of money - over $3500 it looks like, including $1500 in the Silent Auction. We charged a minimum donation of a quarter for the Bingo cards, but got close to $100 I think. (We counted the money last night, but I forgot to ask how much change we had - we did get $60 in bills in the jar though!)
The Firefly Trivia Bingo was a hit with a lot of people, although it took longer than we thought/planned. (Thanks to James, Lynn & Arielle from the CA Browncoats for their ideas & suggestions.) Jedisix did a terrific job of calling the game and after we had two winners Serena & I ended up playing Jeopardy to people who wanted to know the questions to the answers they had on their cards that they didn't get.
There were a lot of people there who had not seen Dr. Horrible before and even more had not seen the musical commentary, but they all loved it. I hope we can do that all over again next year. In the costume contest, we had a Doll and a Groupie (complete with hair), as well as a lot of Serenifly characters.
We didn't sell out but had 186 people in a 210-seat theatre which felt fuller and cosier than last year. Most people came for the full day, although there were some people who had to work who came later or left earlier.
And I really did do nothing today except sleep, cuddle my cat who was very patient with me not being home except to sleep for the past couple of weeks, and try to catch up on some of my e-mails!
I already have some ideas for next year!
